Trembling knees I always dream about a deadly earthquake That shakes the state, smoke and flames Always make it oh, so hard to speak and see, I can't escape Wait for me, I'm so afraid But you always seem so secure oh and oh so sure I'm so sorry but everything I keep close to me runs away Oh, such a shame I'll hide amongst the trees And breathe so quietly until the sun comes out Until the morning comes, so many things scare me Like her shadows dance amongst the trees I've got the skin and bones to stand and say So many things to you, oh to you Oh, but I lack the guts to hold the weight And keep my blood so clam, so calm Trembling knees I always dream about a deadly earthquake That shakes the state, smoke and flames Always make it oh, so hard to speak and see, I can't escape I'll hide amongst the trees And breathe so quietly until the sun comes out Until the morning comes, so many things scare me Like her shadows dance amongst the trees And when the ground all breaks, I'll just run away I'm sorry I still haven't changed I'll trade my veins for your nerves Maybe then I'll stay strong Wait for me, I'm so afraid But you always seem so secure oh and oh so sure I'm so sorry but everything I keep close to me runs away Oh, such a shame Trembling knees I always dream about a deadly earthquake That shakes the state, smoke and flames Always make it oh, so hard to speak and see, I can't escape
